Pittsfield is 100 miles to the west of Worcester, but Sumpter, who is the reigning Massachusetts Light Heavyweight Champion, is confident his fans will travel in force.

Unbeaten Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz A visionary in trunks and gloves People’s champ of Worcester

WORCESTER, Quần chúng. (Tháng sáu 10, 2021) – Unbeaten lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz (14-0-1, 8 Kos) is a visionary, clearly seeing the day he becomes the first Worcester (MA) native to become a World boxing champion, as well as headlining a show at home in front of thousands of his growing legend of fans, and much more.
The 25-year-old Ortiz, former World Boxing Council (WBC) World Youth lightweight, has his sights set on greatness and the boxing world got a glimpse of his vast talent in his last two fights, both showcased on high-profile cards.


His seventh-round stoppage of Sulaiman Segawa (13-3-1, 4 Kos), who had never been previously stopped, last November on the Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, Jr. pay-per-event was the first time for most boxing fans outside of New England to watch him in action.


He followed that performance with an even better one last month on ESPN+, despite settling for a questionable 8-round draw against undefeated Joseph “Blessed Hands” Adorno (14-0-2, 12 Kos), in which most observers felt Ortiz deserved a victory.

“I’ve seen a statue of myself in the City of Worcester…..like Rocky in Philadelphia,” Ortiz said, “but not only for what I do in the ring. I am part of this city. I’m the People’s Champ! I’m willing to do whatever it takes to become world champion. I’ve headlined a show in Worcester, but I want to do it on a big card with thousands of fans there supporting me.”

“I joke around a lot when he talks, but I support any kid who has a dream like Jamaine,” Ortiz’ trainer Rocky Gonzalez remarked. “That’s the way all of us were taught at the Worcester Boys & Girls Club by Carlos Garcia. We believe in ourselves and I’m totally with it. Anything positive, just keep it positive.

“I think Jamaine feels the way he does about Worcester is because it’s personal with him. He was born in there. He’s always so positive at the gym with the kids. When you’re the best in the gym, everybody looks up to you, and that’s the way it is here with Jamaine. It’s important that the young kids are positive, and it is that way in our gym. A lot of that is because of Jamaine.”DCU Center and the new Polar Park are the only venues in Worcester (located 40 miles west of Boston) capable of holding 5,000 fans or more for boxing.

“Jamaine Ortiz to Worcester,” added promoter Jimmy Burchfield (CES president), “is like Micky Ward to Lowell (MA), Vinny Paz to Providence (RI), và John Ruiz to Chelsea (MA). We’re working every day for Jamaine, as we do for all of our fighters, and get ready for some big news!"

“I’ve headlined before, at the Palladium, but fighting at home in front of 5,000 or more fans on television would be great,” reigning WBC United States Silver lightweight champion Ortiz concluded. “That’s something I expect as the People’s Champion. I’ve put in the work and built a growing fanbase, which will translate into future ticket sales. I think it may take me fighting on TV in Las Vegas or Madison Square Garden for casual fight fans in Worcester to get onboard.”

“Very progressive and brilliant Worcester city officials recognize the importance of bringing high end sporting events to the area and have great plans for the sporting community in the near future,” Ortiz’ manager Dick Shappy lưu ý. “The recent purchase of the Pawtucket Red Sox, the Boston Red Sox AAA minor league affiliate, is a testament to that. The timing is perfect right now for Jamaine as he positions himself to become Worcester’s favorite son and world champion. Boxing fans, stay tuned!

Worcester is ready to celebrate its favorite son. The Day of “The Technician” is coming!

Quyền anh đã cứu mạng Nhà vô địch thế giới hai hạng “El Gallo” Jose Antonio Rivera

COLORADO SPRINGS, Vạt áo. (Tháng sáu 4, 2020) - Như nhiều võ sĩ quyền anh, hai bộ phận vô địch thế giới "Gà trống" Jose Antonio Rivera tín dụng quyền anh vì đã cứu sống anh ấy.

"Chắc chắn rồi,”Rivera đồng ý. “Sau khi mẹ tôi qua đời khi tôi 10 tuổi, Tôi đã từ bỏ cuộc sống và việc ra quyết định của tôi phản ánh điều đó: quanh quẩn với đám đông sai bao gồm cả các thành viên băng đảng, uống rượu ở độ tuổi 10 và 15. Tôi chắc chắn đã đi sai hướng.

“Tôi chưa bao giờ nghĩ mình có tương lai cho đến khi bắt đầu tập quyền anh. Thật khó để nói tôi sẽ làm gì nếu tôi chưa bao giờ đóng hộp, nhưng theo cách tôi đang sống, Bây giờ có lẽ tôi sẽ phải ngồi tù hoặc đã chết. "

Sinh ra ở Philadelphia, Rivera sống ở Puerto Rico và Springfield, MA, trước khi anh ta chuyển đến Worcester, MA, nơi anh ấy gặp một người đàn ông đã giúp thay đổi cuộc đời anh ấy, Carlos Garcia, người phụ trách một chương trình quyền anh đặc biệt tại Worcester Boys & Câu lạc bộ các cô gái.

Rivera đã bắt đầu chơi quyền anh ở tuổi 14 ½ trong một tầng hầm với bạn của anh ấy, Felix Lopez.  Anh ấy đã yêu quyền anh sau khi xemRoberto Duran buồn“Đường” Ray Leonard trong cuộc chiến đầu tiên của họ. Chàng trai trẻ người Mỹ gốc Puerto Rico đặc biệt sử dụng kinh nghiệm chơi quyền anh nghiệp dư của mình để chuẩn bị lên hạng chuyên nghiệp. Garcia, ai đang ở trong Đại sảnh vinh danh Găng tay vàng quốc gia, đưa anh ta vào một trận đấu mới chỉ sau một trận đấu nghiệp dư để đưa Rivera vào con đường nhanh, bởi vì anh ấy hiểu rằng Rivera mơ ước trở thành nhà vô địch thế giới với tư cách là một người chuyên nghiệp. Rivera đã hoàn thành với một 35-15 kỷ lục amateur, được đánh dấu bằng màn trình diễn huy chương đồng tại PAL Nationals.

“Tôi chưa bao giờ có khát vọng nghiệp dư lớn nhưng, tất nhiên, Tôi muốn giành chiến thắng trong mọi trận đấu mà tôi đã tham gia,”Rivera nói. “Một khi tôi không đủ điều kiện tham dự Olympic Trials, kế hoạch của tôi là trở thành chuyên nghiệp. Tôi không biết những người nghiệp dư sẽ chuẩn bị cho tôi đến mức nào để trở thành một võ sĩ chuyên nghiệp thành công. Tôi rất vui vì tôi đã lắng nghe huấn luyện viên của mình, nếu không thì tôi đã trở nên chuyên nghiệp sớm hơn, bởi vì tôi sẽ cảm thấy thất vọng với chính trị của những người nghiệp dư. Tôi ghét thua cuộc, nhưng tôi càng ghét thua hơn khi biết rằng lẽ ra mình phải thắng. Sau ba năm bên nhau (với Garcia) theo nghiệp dư và có được vô số kinh nghiệm đi du lịch khắp New England, đất nước và thậm chí chiến đấu ở Canada, Tôi đã nhìn thấy tất cả các loại phong cách và những võ sĩ tài năng đã giúp tôi trở thành một người chuyên nghiệp. Carlos giống như một người cha đối với tôi và trong suốt quá trình đào tạo và đi lại của chúng tôi, anh ấy luôn ở trong đầu tôi, xây dựng tôi để trở thành một võ sĩ giỏi, mà còn để giúp tôi trở thành một người đàn ông tốt hơn ”.

Ngày 7, 1992, Rivera ra mắt chuyên nghiệp, gõ raFrancisco Mercedes trong vòng thứ hai. Anh ấy đã giành được chiến thắng đầu tiên của mình 23 cuộc chơi chuyên nghiệp, bao gồm cả chức vô địch hạng cân của Bang Massachusetts ở 1995. Trận thua chuyên nghiệp đầu tiên của anh ấy là trước võ sĩ kỳ cựu của PhiladelphiaWillie Wise (20-3-4), người đã giành chiến thắng trong quyết định chia 10 vòng gây tranh cãi tại Foxwoods Resort Casino ở Connecticut. Rivera đã chứng minh rằng anh ta còn hơn cả một khách hàng tiềm năng trong lần thua đầu tiên, mất một quyết định gần gũi (98-95, 94-97, 94-96) cho một đối thủ làm thất vọng biểu tượng MexicoJulio Cesar Chavez (102-3-2) chỉ ba năm sau.

Thể hiện cùng khả năng phục hồi đã gắn bó với Rivera trong suốt sự nghiệp của anh ấy, hai cuộc chiến sau đó Rivera dừng lạiGilberto Flores trong hai hiệp để nắm giữ Tổ chức Quyền anh Quốc tế (IBO) vô địch hạng cân hàn thế giới. Rivera đã kéo dài chuỗi trận thắng mới của mình lên con số bảy, trước khi thua trở lại chiến đấu trở lại. Bốn trận đấu sau đó, tuy nhiên, Rivera đã đăng ký chiến thắng tuyên bố đầu tiên của mình trong 2001, gõ raFrankie Randall (55-10-1) trong 10th vòng để giữ lại Hiệp hội Quyền anh Bắc Mỹ của anh ấy (Ngoài ra) vương miện trong lần bảo vệ đầu tiên của mình.

Hiện được thăng chức bởi Don King huyền thoại, Rivera đã đi qua Đại Tây Dương vào tháng 9 2003 Tới Đức, nơi mà rất ít người Mỹ có thể giành chiến thắng. Rivera sớm chứng minh rằng anh ấy có ý kinh doanh, hạ gục trước đó bất bạiMichel Trabant trong vòng thứ hai trên đường giành chiến thắng theo đa số 12 hiệp quyết định cho Hiệp hội Quyền anh Thế giới còn trống (WBA).  Triều đại của anh ấy, tuy nhiên, không tồn tại lâu. Trong lần bảo vệ đầu tiên của anh ấy, Rivera đã thua trong 12 hiệp đấu quyết định trên sân nhà ở Worcester trước kẻ thách thứcLuis Collazo (24-1)

Rivera tăng một hạng cân cho trận đấu tiếp theo, thể hiện khả năng phục hồi là yếu tố quan trọng trong sự nghiệp của anh ấy cho cuộc chiến tiếp theo của anh ấy, cũng ở nhà, chống lại nhà vô địch thế giới hạng trung WBA hạng trungAlexandro Garcia (25-1).

Trong trận chiến tiếp theo và lần đầu tiên bảo vệ danh hiệu thế giới thứ ba của mình, Rivera lần đầu tiên bị dừng lại trong sự nghiệp thi đấu chuyên nghiệp của mình, bởi nhà vô địch mớiTravis Simms (24-0), và sau đó anh ta bị hạ gục bởiDaniel Santos (24-0) trong vòng tám của kẻ loại bỏ danh hiệu hạng trung trẻ WBA của họ.

Rivera đã nghỉ hưu ở 2008 chỉ để trở lại trong 2001, sau đó anh ấy giải nghệ một lần nữa cho đến khi trở lại cho hai trận đấu ở Worcester để hoàn thành sự nghiệp chuyên nghiệp của mình với 50 chiến đấu, người cuối cùng đến ở tuổi 46.

“Những kinh nghiệm đấm bốc của Jose ở Mỹ đã định hình anh ấy thành người đàn ông có tính cách như ngày nay, cả trong và ngoài của vòng,"NóiChris Cugliari, Giám đốc cựu sinh viên quyền anh Hoa Kỳ. “Anh ấy đã đi con đường ít đi cho một nhà vô địch thế giới, và khi làm như vậy, anh ấy đã thể hiện sự dẻo dai và kiên trì của mình.

“Tôi luôn có một đạo đức làm việc tốt khi lớn lên," Anh ấy đã giải thích. “Khi tôi chuyển đến Worcester tại 16 tuổi, Tôi đã sống một mình: trường học, công việc, và sau đó đến Những chàng trai & Câu lạc bộ cô gái để đào tạo. Tôi vẫn giữ nguyên đạo đức làm việc mà tôi đã có 19 khi tôi trở thành chuyên nghiệp. Tôi đã trở thành một người cha tại 20, vì vậy việc cung cấp cho gia đình tôi là điều cần thiết.

Unhappy birthday coming up for undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz

WORCESTER, Quần chúng. (Tháng tư 15, 2020) – Even in his wildest dreams, undefeated World Boxing Council (WBC) Youth World lightweight championJamaine “The Technician” Ortiz (13-0, 7 Kos) never could have ever imagined that his 24th ngày sinh nhật, later this month, would fall smack in the middle of a worldwide health pandemic

When he turns 24 vào ngày 28th, Ortiz figured he’d be preparing for training camp with a spring fight date set, likely defending his WBC Youth World title of fighting for a regional belt of some sort.

He certainly didn’t think boxing would be banned around the world, gyms closed by a state mandate, and people wearing facemasks and plastic gloves like they’re in a Sci-Fi movie. Và, to boot, his job as a licensed carpenter ended closed shop last Friday. Like everybody else in the Bay State.

Ortiz is basically self-quarantined at home, although he’s still running, đào tạo, eating well and doing everything else to maintain decent shape. Not elite boxing shape, tuy nhiên, which simply isn’t possible under these restrictive and trying times.

Instead of sparring, he’s shadow boxing, jumping rope has replaced pad-work with his trainersRocky Gonzalez vàCarlos Garcia, and now his living room serves as hisphòng thể dục.

Times have been dramatically altered, thật, even celebrating birthdays, which Jamaine fully understands and accepts.

“I don’t think my birthday will be any different,” Ortiz said. “I usually spend it alone with my mother and daughter (4-year-old Amira) and this year probably won’t be any different. I won’t be able to get in a whole bunch of sparring rounds that I usually ask for (cười) as presents from some of my friends.“

May mắn thay, tuy nhiên, Ortiz was able to fight this past February 28 in his first action in six months, headlining a CES Boxing-promoted card at home in Worcester, Massachusetts, in which he registered an impressive second-round stoppage of Mexican knockout specialist“Loco” Luis Ronaldo Castillo (22-6, 17 Kos), a former WBC FECOMBOX lightweight champion.

Ortiz, presently rated No. 16 by the North American Boxing Federation (NABF), aspires to attend medical school after he hangs up his gloves for good, to become a doctor/researcher. He reads a lot about medicine, especially holistic treatments, and he believes that he may have already had the coronavirus.

“Five weeks before my last fight,” he explained, “I was in the hospital with a temperature of 104.5. Just about everybody I knew was sick, my grandmother had pneumonia. I never really get sick. I had a flu shot for seven years without an issue. I developed a cough, too. I felt like I was going to die. I can’t say with certainty I had coronavirus (there was no test available then), but I feel like I may have had it.”

Ortiz will be ready for the night the ring bell will finally sound again. “I hope to be fighting again in July or August, nhưng, no matter when boxing returns, I’ll be ready to go.

“This is a serious, contagious disease. People should use common sense: wash your hands, stay separated by six feet, and stay at home, especially the elderly and people with respiratory problems. Don’t take any unnecessary risks or panic, either. This isn’t the end of the world!"

Undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz Hammerin’ his way to medical school

WORCESTER, Quần chúng. (Tháng giêng 6, 2020) – Undefeated World Boxing Council (WBC) Youth World lightweight championJamaine “The Technician” Ortiz (12-0, 6 Kos) isn’t a typical professional boxer whose life entirely revolves in and around the “Sweet Science.”

The 23-year-old Ortiz is also a licensed carpenter with diverse interests ranging from engineering and psychology to philosophy, and his ultimate post-boxing career aspiration is to attend medical school. First, tuy nhiên, Ortiz’ goal is to become world champion, which would be a first for a native of Worcester, Massachusetts.

“I was always fascinated by architecture, starting with my mother’s house, and that spun off to engineering,” Ortiz explained. “I wanted to learn how to build to better understand and became a carpenter after graduating from high school. I’m not worried about getting hurt at work. I do work with my hands, but I’m in the union and everything is safe, and I’m very careful.

“Medical school is my dream. I want to help people working with cells, blood and muscle tissues, understanding the body. I’m not sure if I’ll do research or be working with patients, maybe in internal medicine, but not in traditional medicine. I’m interested in natural, holistic medicine, and working for the benefit of people.”

Ortiz, who started boxing at the age of six, will return to the ring in early 2020 vì, most likely, his final WBC Youth World title fight, because this title is for fighters 23 or younger, and Jamaine turns 24 on April 28.

The WBC World Youth title has been a stepping-stone for great champions such asSaul “Canelo” AlvarezTimothy Bradley,Danny Garcia vàLeo Santa Cruz, trong số các nhân sĩ hơn.

“I’m proud to be the WBC World lightweight champion, but I’ll have to give it up in April when I turn 24.,” Ortiz remarked. “I’ll win bigger titles as I get older. This has been good for now, but I’m going on to bigger and better things. I’m confident that I’ll be world champion in 2021 and I want to be a multiple wight-class world champion before I retire.”

Ortiz recently gained even more confidence whenTeofimo Lopez (15-0, 12 Kos) captured the International Boxing Federation (IBF) World lightweight championship, gõ ra đương kim vô địchRichard Commey in the second round this past December.

Đồng 2015 Găng tay vàng quốc gia, Ortiz lost a decision to Lopez in the championship final. “He didn’t do that stuff to me (like he did to Commey),” Ortiz noted. “He didn’t beat me up. I lost a decision, but I showed that I could fight with him. He was nothing like you saw on television (vs. Commey), though. I’ve watched him get better and better.

So is Ortiz and before he swaps his boxing gloves for a stethoscope, he has unfinished business in boxing. Nothing short of capturing a world championship crown will satisfy “The Technician.”

Boxing’s Best Kept Secret Undefeated WBC Youth World lightweight champion JamaineThe Technician” Ortiz

WORCESTER, Quần chúng. (Tháng mười một 5, 2019) – Undefeated World Boxing Youth World lightweight champion JamaineThe Technician” Ortiz (12-0, 6 Kos) là, có lẽ, the best prospect in the world who most boxing fans don’t know.

A large part of the problem, tuy nhiên, is that the 23-year-old Ortiz, born and raised in the fighting city of Worcester, MA, never aspired to be a professional boxer, despite having a decorated amateur career.

He started boxing when he was six years old, thanks to National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame trainer Carlos Garcia, who has run the boxing program at the Worcester Boys & Girls Club for nearly 40 năm.

The naturally gifted Ortiz compiled an outstanding 100-14 kỷ lục amateur, highlighted by a silver medal at the 2015 Găng tay vàng quốc gia giải đấu, in which he lost in the championship final to future professional world champion Joselito Lopez, plus back-to-back gold medal performances at the New England Tournament of Champions in 2015 & 2016.

Testimony to Ortizpromising potential was his final amateur match, which was a solid victory against Abraham “Siêu” Nova, là người 17-0 (13 Kos) là một chuyên nghiệp, as well as the reigning North American Boxing Association champion, and rated by the World Boxing Association (WBA) như No. 8 siêu lông trên thế giới.

Turning pro wasn’t my end goal,” consummate boxer Ortiz said. “It really wasn’t on my mind. I focused on regional and national tournaments. I always thought I’d win an Olympic gold medal and then turn pro. I wish I had been better prepared to turn pro.

People that know me didn’t even realize that I had turned pro. It took a while before I adjusted, but I never really transitioned. Others had a game plan; I didn’t have a clue, but soon realized trophies I won in the amateurs weren’t going to pay the bills. Most of my fans today are other fighters and coaches.

When his Olympic dream ended, after he lost in the semifinals of the Olympic Trials, that’s when his promoter, Jimmy Burchfield (Classic Entertainment and Sports / CES), and co-adviser, Providence businessman Richard Shappy got involved in Ortizpro career. They’ve invested time, money and energy, believing in Ortiz and his tremendous potential.

“Cho năm,” explained Shappy, who advises Ortiz along with Eddie Imondi,” I kept telling Jimmy (Burchfield) that I was interested in getting involved with a boxer, but that it had to be the right one. One day Jimmy called to say this (Ortiz) is the one. I jumped onboard. He convinced me that Jamaine is a future world champion. We jumped in from his first fight, on the ground floor, and we believe he is going to be world champion.

Burchfield has promoted the likes of five-time world champion Vinny Paz, La Mỹ. OlympianJason Estrada, Ray Oliveira, Gary Balletto, Peter Manfredo, Jr. and many others during his 25-plus years in the boxing industry. “Jamaine is the best I’ve promoted since Vinny Paz,” Burchfield claimed without hesitation. “He’s one of the best prospects in the world today and someday he’ll be world champion. Some say he has the good looks ofOscar de la Hoya; others feel his style is like that ofĐường’ Ray Leonard.”

When his Olympic dream unceremoniously ended, he decided to turn pro in 2016, winning his pro debut when Josh Parker retired after one round. The highlight of his young pro career to date was winning an eight-round unanimous decision this past February from previously undefeated (10-0) Ricardo Quiroz to capture the vacant WBC Youth World lightweight title, the same belt once proudly worn by, trớ trêu, the aforementioned Lopez, cũng như Juan DiazDaniel Estrada.

Past CES-promoted fighters who were WBC World Youth champions include three-time world champion “Xấu” Chad Dawson và hạng nặng Ba Lan Maruisz Wach.

In his last fight and first WBC World Youth title defense this past August, Ortiz won a dominating eight-round unanimous decision over 8-1-1 Romain Couture, pitching a shutout by winning each round on all three judges’ Bảng điểm.

Ortiz’ time to star in the ring is coming. He is a diamond in the rough; trẻ, talented and with tremendous upside. He has a strong team behind him, including head coach Rocky Gonzalez and Garcia, who is still working his corner

Ortiz’ fan-base will eventually develop and quickly grow as more and more boxing fans discover this gifted boxer as he ascends to the top of the boxing mountain.
2020 promises to be theYear of The Technician,” Jamaine Ortiz.

The Worcester Boys & Girls Club helped me stay off the streets so I could focus on my dream of becoming world champion,” Rivera remembered. “It was a place for me and so many others to go and be safe. Kids, not just boxers, can be kids there, where they don’t have to worry about what’s happening in the streets.

Carlos has played a tremendous part of my life and so many others, influencing us not only to become good boxers, but to be good people in the community. That was always so important to him and he emphasized being a good person. Tôi đã làm tốt nhất của tôi. He was always fair across the board and gave us all opportunities. He took a liking to me and brags that he never had to throw me out of the Boys & Câu lạc bộ các cô gái. I graduated from high school and went after my dream in 1992 when I turned pro. Carlos is big in amateur boxing, but not so much with pros, because he doesn’t have the time to train pros. I made sure that when turned pro, tough, that he was part of my team. And he’s still a big part of my team and life.

The number of Worcester youths Garcia has had a positive effect on, life-changing in many respects, is countless. One of those many people is Jose’s longtime friend and his current head trainer, Sean Fitzgerald, who retired as a boxer in 2001 với một 29-2-2 pro record. “Fitzyremembers the fir time he read the sign over the door in the gym at the Boys & Câu lạc bộ các cô gái: “Better to seat than bleed.

Fitzy lived with his father when his parents divorced and at the age of 10, his father sent him to the Boys & Girls Club to attend an after-school program. “Fitzysaid he had to earn his way into Garcia’s good graces.

Carlos didn’t talk to me for the first 5-6 tuần,” Fitzgerald explained. “Sau đó,, he put me in the ring as a sparring partner, and I was badly beaten. I had a bloody nose and black eye, but the next day I came back, Và phần còn lại là lịch sử. Carlos was a great mentor, rough at times, but always there for you. I remember seeing the boxing team jackets. It intrigued me. When I got my jacket and started wearing it, I got respect from everybody, and then I knew that I belonged. I learned a lot about life at the Boys & Câu lạc bộ các cô gái, being with there with people from different generations and cultures. I met many friends there who I never would have met.

The Boys & Girls Club is safe. I was from a tough area in Worcester. My father worked and it was easy to get in trouble with no supervision. Carlos stayed on top of me to graduate from school and if I was home sick, he come buy with chicken soup to make sure I was alright. My father was in my life big-time, but I joke that I had two moms growing up, my father and Carlos. Going to the Boys & Girls Club was something to look forward to every day.

Carlos always taught us to never make the mistakes he did in life. He wanted us to go to school, stay out of trouble, and be a good person. He’s helped so many people over the years. Look around Worcester and you’ll see them: police and court officers, fire fighters, and so many others. The Boys & Girls Club was a great experience for me and so many other kids from Worcester.


(L-R) – Ray Semidei, Carlos Garcia and Jose Antonio Rivera

Garcia has been the director of boxing at the Worcester Boys & Girls Club since 1982. Two year ago, Garcia was inductred into the National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame.

Never in his life has Jose even raised his voice to me,” Garcia commented. “He treats me like his father and he’s like one of my sons. There aren’t not too many guys like him and he’s so well respected in the community. He came to Worcester from Springfield to train with ne and stayed with me. Jose helps everyone and now he’s promoting to help local boxers.

We’re at the Boys & Girls Club to and that’s the way it really is here. It’s so good to see so many in this community who’ve gone through our boxing program and are good people, good husbands, good parents. It makes me feel so proud. ‘Fitzywas a hyper kid. He’s a real gentleman who now does so much for kids here. I’ve never had a signed contract with any of the pro boxers I’ve worked with because I trust them.
